Per git repo

The current commits and updates can always be viewed on the website http://git.kernel.dk/?p=fio.git;a=summary . More information about Git can be found in the category Git . To clone the Fio repository, use the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/axboe/fio.git
$ ls
fio

From the git repo new updates can be obtained regularly:

$ cd fio
$ git pull
[...]

Thereafter, Fio can be recompiled to install the latest version.

Compile

Compiling requires a build environment (make etc.). In addition, the “libaio” library must be installed for asynchronous IO accesses.
